I agree.
Interesting that Tekonsha recommended no boost. In Dexter's instructions, they say to set the controller so that 2 volts goes to the brakes at initial braking, gradually increasing to 12 volts.
Prodigy's instructions say that without the boost, voltage starts at zero. So that doesn't seem consistent with what Dexter recommends for their brakes.
But I think if you have good braking and cool hubs, all is good in the world. I'm going to remove the boost as you suggest and go from there. What power setting (1 to 12) is your P3 set to? The Prodigy instructions say to start at 6 before adjusting......
